For the price, this is a fantastic bargain. Similar products run upwards of double the cost elsewhere. Pros: Fit/Finish is very nice. Good chrome, rubber and foam components seem to be quality. Plastic parts look to be higher-end ABS and should prove to be very durable. Set-up is very easy, and unit really stands up solid, even when used on a carpeted floor. Product description states it can handle up to 170lbs. and it definitely appears capable of that claim. Rubber "feet" pivot to compensate for uneven surfaces. Ratcheting mechanism for telescoping portion has an easy to use push-button lock. Bike hangers clamp very securely to the unit. (Not Really) Cons: Bike hangers have rather narrow hooks, so frames with large top-tubes may not hang properly without opening the hooks a bit. The hangers don't lock the hooks into position- the weight of the bike self-levels the hanger, so your bikes may not hang exactly how you want them to look. Because the unit uses a ratcheting system for the telescoping pole, there's a slight bit of "play" between the main pole and the extension. This gives the illusion that the unit is slightly loose. Rest assured that it is not, however. The ratchet design is far more reliable than a tension-based design would be. Overall, I'm amazed at the quality of this unit for the price. The more expensive models tend to top out at more than double the price of this one, and they typically list a maximum load of under 100lbs. I finally have my Mountainbike and my BMX up off my carpet!
easy to set up. was initially worried that my bikes were too heavy (i have two adult-sized "comfort" bikes made by raleigh). the top portion of the bar is smaller in diameter than the bottom portion, and the instructions state that the top is capable of holding a maximum of 30 lbs. (45 lbs for the bottom bar). both bikes weighed in at around 33 lbs., but they have stayed put for the past three weeks and counting.
We have a one-car garage and no basement - we wanted something that could get our bikes up off the floor and "tight" against the wall so we could still get the car into the garage, and this works! Fairly easy to assemble (it took us about half an hour to put it up, adjust, and hang the bikes), and seems secure - it's been up for a few weeks and nothing has slipped or shifted at all. Worth the price for us.
I have owned this for 4 years, it is durable, sturdy, and has never failed me in my tiny NYC apartment. It never slipped, tipped over, slid, and has been banged into many times all while holding the bikes in place. The best rack for the money, I was actually looking for it now for a present for my brother and was very happy to see it. Don't pay more for the others, this does the job perfectly.
This rack is not only easy to setup but is a quality product as well.It works fine with the recommended horizontal configuration for the bike, but to save space I made a quick modification of the bracket and now hang the bike from the front wheel, vertically.
I had it up and fitted in 10 minutes the top bike is low enough even with a bd shoulder I can still get it up on the top fitting.
This bike rack is excatly what we were looking for our city apartment. It holds two bikes comfortably and we have had no issue with it moving. Adjustments are done easy and it took less than 30 minutes to set up. Would recommend to everyone.
This rack when fully extended is a bit wobbly, especially with two adult bikes on it. I'm disappointed with top hanger since it tends to slide down when the bike is mounted. These issues can be corrected with a little modification. It worked for me because i installed in the garage and I was able to secure it to a wall.
Installed product and it appeared to fit well between floor and ceiling. However when bike holders were placed in position and bikes were put in place, they commenced to slide down the chrome base and basically sit on the floor and on top of each other. Tried tightening as tight as I possibly could but to no avail (and I'm a strong person) as the bikes would not stay in the desired position. Would not recommend this product. Poorly engineneered and designed.
just what I was looking for to organize the entry way in the apartment - holds two bikes well - was easy to esemble. Little bit of a pain in the neck to hang and remove the bikes - but that could be due to the minimal space I have where it is hung
